Unfortunately yes
Does anyone else remember this?
I think it depends what you define as a "hit".I remember these! "We've got a fuzzbox and we're gonna use it!". I'm sure they still 'tour' ..
Are we including one hit wonders too out of interest?
Yes, I fancied him in Corrie and in this video. I liked the follow up single too Everything My Heart Desires
Does anyone else remember this?
I remember their follow-up single wentOne True Voice (beaten by Girls Aloud)
Curve had a song "Chinese Burn" used for a Sony Mindisc advert.Curve were once the darlings of the NME Indie press. They had some minor success but that’s it. They were always a bit too alternative to be regarded as pop.
I remember Bellefire - Perfect Bliss and All I Want is You. Louis Walsh used to manage them and hype them up, next biggest girl group, worldwide fame etc.I remember their follow-up single wentif I had Shakespeare's way with words I would write a sonnet and put your name upon it funnily enough they disappeared after that
Anyone remember the Irish girl group Bellefire?
She came back years later as an adult pop star with a pair of new singles neither of which went anywhere on the charts although I liked the first one the very Womanizer-esque Crazy Possessive. She did release an album with these songs but only in Japan. She became a born again Christian after that.Remember kaci who sang paradise? I absolutely loved that song
They always believed that Pete Waterman hated getting them and not the Girls Aloud that he deliberately sabotaged them with bad choices. They made it obvious when they were promoting the song how much they hated the song at Waterman. There were rumours at the time he asked Rik Astley to write the worst song to finish their careers.I remember their follow-up single wentif I had Shakespeare's way with words I would write a sonnet and put your name upon it funnily enough they disappeared after that
I quite liked Say Something Anyway. The fact that One True Voice have an official vevo channel and they don't makes me sad.Anyone remember the Irish girl group Bellefire?
The mention of Alex Parks reminded me of another fart in the wind from the 00s - the lead singer of Speedway was dating Alex I think.Did anyone good ever come out of fame academy?! Alex parks is the only one I can remember.. flops all round
They were famous in the mid-late 80s so probably before your time and don’t fall into the timeline of this thread. They were marketed as the British Jacksons/Jackson 5 as they were all siblings (although they were mixed-sex rather than all male)I’ve never heard of Five Star
Yes Darren from hollyoaks was in itWho remembers ALLstars who had their own show on SMTV?
Thing they support take that at a concert . i Will still have the single somewhereOo off to have a look naturally.
How about Ultimate Kaos? 'Some girls' reminds me of a glorious summer I nearly lived at same friends house cos she had Nikolodeon.
The youngest of the awful Girl Thing was the beautiful Jodi Albert. She went on to do Hollyoaks, she’s quite an alright actress I think, but somewhere down the line she joined another girl band (Ireland-based) that also flopped. I think they were called Wonderland or something like that.God weren’t they shit? They were so ordinary looking and fucking terrible singers, even the singing on actual tracks is out of tune
What about Girl Thing? Blatant Spice Girls rip off. I believe Simon Cowell was behind them (after he’d rejected the Spice Girls)
Yep, I remember Aaron Carter. It was really sad to see his downfall in his adult life.Sticking with the sibling theme Aaron Carter, younger brother of Nick Carter from The Backstreet Boys. Aaron had a couple of top ten hits in the UK then a couple more that hit the top 40. He’s had quite a troubled life in recent years
I had Cleopatra's album, I loved it.I vaguely remember two bands..
Five Star and Cleopatra. I think Five Star did have a few hits though. Not sure if Cleopatra were one hit wonders.
Northern Line were shite and corny beyond belief, I remember Run for Your Life too, had a Halloween sort of vibe to it. Elton John lauded them as the new Take That, wtf was he on
I remember when they did this song on TOTP or CD:UK and were doing backflips on stage like a bunch of c0cks.
The mention of Alex Parks reminded me of another fart in the wind from the 00s - the lead singer of Speedway was dating Alex I think.
With Elton it could've been one of a number of things....Northern Line were shite and corny beyond belief, I remember Run for Your Life too, had a Halloween sort of vibe to it. Elton John lauded them as the new Take That, wtf was he on
I remember her promo rounds for it too, all thinking she was going to go from page 3 to number 1. She even went on the Richard Blackwood ShowDoes anyone remember this?
